Great Day Parody
 
I record a VERY BAD parody of Great Day. I recorded random guitar sounds with random effects placed very late so they are off beat, I did the mic taps, I distorted gibberish sounds as percussion, sang very badly using a LOT of reverb, and put a completely out of place guitar solo at the end. ENJOY! I made sure everything was one take. It took me about an hour.

This is a humourous tribute to Lindsey. I adore his work and he's among my all time three top guitar heroes. I really like him, so don't get the wrong impression.

Now record "bad taste" and make me really laugh.

I could do that. I thought it was fun recording this. :lol: I actually wanted to send you something more serious if you PM me your email. I tried completely improvising something based on a theme and it turned out okay, despite the warts in performance. I thought you might like it.

No AJ. It turned out dumb. I've got a tremendously big and broad sense of humour, but yours isn't fitting in.

I was referring to something else, not this.

This is what's posted. I took the effort of listening through. Don't ask me to sit through another tasteless devastation. You did not put enough effort in it. Shame on you.

vivfox will play it loud through the carspeakers though. You'll have an audience at last.

The other thing was supposed to be a serious piece that had nothing to do with LB. I doubt you've ever heard anything I've done myself. Anyway, if you don't want to hear it fine, but I was taking your advice in recording this other new thing in not aiming for perfection, I thought that might make you happy. :blob2:

I guess you don't see it, wallhead. You are a happy man that I never heard your serious recordings. I might comment.

By the way. Anything in this world can make me happy. Selfacclaimed "not respectful" people are not among it, though. Stop trying. Waste of time.

I haven't been rude to you here, or even a little bit snippy?! I don't know what your problem is. :shrug:

You could keep it going for Shackin' Up, I think he's done now. Did you hate the parody? :laugh:

No AJ, You can't see your own attitude even if you rode a rodeo on it. It's not about snippyness, it's about online-character.

estranged4life 09-25-2008 05:01 PM

I can attest to...

Which was, also due by estranged4life's totally "spiritual" tour through the center of OKC, the most impressive day of my life, apart of my son's birth.

Do I really have to explain that "wasting tape" is an expression? You are even a bigger brickbrain than I hoped you were.

No, I just simply refuse to engage your nastiness and am insisting on taking everything you say literally, while cheerfully ignoring your insults. :) I find it frustrates the other person a great deal more while I can be in a great mood without anything you say upsetting me. :woohoo: In addition, you end up looking like the ass, not me.

and can he pull-up-a-snot, or what? listening to those first few seconds...I wasn't sure whether he was preparing to spit or gag.

shackin'up 09-25-2008 05:34 PM

BTW, I do not have the arrogance of thinking I could upset you. You can't upset someone who thinks he knows it all.

I was sure either, I just recorded whatever came out and threw as many weird effects on it as I could. :shrug: It's supposed to be incoherent and BAD.

Well, that's NOT the idea you had.

I quote you Mr. Knowitall yourself:

Okay, I tell you what, I have a "Great Day" parody going through my head and I'll lay it down in the next few days and post it here and see how you like the same stuff coming from some other guy who isn't Lindsey. I'll bet it'll lose the charm.
Mission failed. Don't turn it around as if you were planning to do it this way. Just admit that your ego is too big to admit that this is what you are. A pathetic wannabe with a mouth as big as a recordingstudio.

No, it's just that I had other things going on in my life and never got around to recording it after my statement as i said I would. After all, there is life outside of Fleetwood Mac. I have a job, a family, a school program I'm finishing. I stayed up late after finishing a group project and laid this down before I went to bed. I was just plain too busy to spend any length of time on it, especially since the idea is a waste of time to begin with. Why would you even bother challenging me on this?! This is so stupid. :laugh: A wannabe would be the guy who spends time tearing down what was supposed to be a joke. You couldn't even do as well as I did even if you were trying to seriously imitate Lindsey. I just can't figure out why you are wasting your time going through old posts to challenge me on a Gawd-awful parody meant to be a very bad joke. Don't you have anything better to do?!

And now you came up with this crap. You can't do it, you were just speaking your all american bigtalk, and now you failed you say it was on purpose.

I would NEVER ever seriously try to imitate Lindsey. You took a shot and you made a total idi*t of yourself. Ah come on, AJ, You're full of it and that's totally clear.

What's clear is that you have nothing better to do with your time than pick on a guy you call a wannabe. Point is that I said I was going to spend time on this and I had too much going on to do what I said I would. I barely have time to record the stuff that is serious, much less waste time on tripe like this. Hell, it even took me two days to get around to posting it. Given that this is a guy who says that I can't "cut it" but confesses to never hearing any of my actual work, it's pretty clear to anyone who has heard it that you don't know what you are talking about. Go to iTunes and download "Only One" or my version of "Classical Gas" and you'll change your tune. Otherwise, you can continue to blow smoke out of your ass. Hell, I'll even email you the tracks for free! Go revisit the link and you'll see a second tune there. I wrote it and arranged it, as well as played the guitars on it.

i dunno what it's for or any of that but.. it sucks.

and the music on whatever this band's homepage is sucks too.

ok. bye! :wavey:

shackin'up 09-25-2008 06:23 PM

Believe me dude. You don't want me seriously commenting on your recordings. You simply don't. And you can forget the fact that I will take my time, precious time to spend it on ego's as big as yours. I enjoy sharpening my english by responding from the heart to posters that irritate the sh*t out of me by their attitude. I can't really speak english, but I tend to be quite visual when I don't think about it but type from the gut. You've been the best trigger in years.

Go ahead and listen, everyone is entitled to their opinion. I invite you to. There are samples posted on my website under "Listen". Sometimes the harshest critics are the people to listen to. Hopefully you'll be more articulate than the person who said, "uh this band sucks, let me smoke another bowl". :laugh: Can you put your personal dislike of me aside and just listen and comment with an open ear? I'd like it if you can do that, as I do respect your musical opinion, especially because it's different than mine.
